Lab 5 - Relatedness

Software

Likelihood based inference of parentage using co-dominant markers. Includes powerful simulations allowing for genotyping error. Original version was published in 1998, but this is a new version (2006) that removed some of the earlier problems. The website provides a brief overview of the basic methods in the program, while the Help file is a more in depth description - both are very good

Java application that does many analyses previously only available in KINSHIP on the Mac platform. Primarily used for pedigree relationship reconstruction and kin group assignments using genetic markers

Lab 6 - Effective population size

Software

Uses various methods to estimate effective population size. Can be integrated with three other programs, TM3 (Bayesian), McLeeps (multilocus maximum likelihood) and a method allowing immigration (MLNE).
